another acura problem...

so I fill my cl-s with gas and I go on my merry way, driving to work, etc.

wouldn't you know it? after about a week, the damn thing is empty again!

acura is really letting me down here. how many times do I have to fill the freakin' tank on a $30,000 car?!??

damn, and it's doin' it like every 300 miles or so, too.

I've taken it to the dealer twice for this problem already. idiots keep telling me it's normal. wtf? my gm ev1 never had this problem!

I'm thinkin' recall...

(I feel much better now...

I am truly sorry to hear about the problems you are having with your Acura and gas. I'm afraid, however, no matter what other car you bought you would run into the same problem, and when you took it to the dealer you would hear the dreaded words "They all do it."

Me too!!! ... AND ... has this happened to you ... on the way to work I stop and get a nice steaming, hot cup of coffee and of course put it in the CL-S cup holder .. well, by the time I get to work the cup is either EMPTY or COLD!!! What's up with that?? I'm thinking class action suit against Acura ....
